Seems decent, but the mana cost on this guy is annoying.




Ya, he is. For me though it isnt too bad, since been using glissa, the traitor since she came out. Still, not as weird as Krond the dawn-clad ...

Hmm I can see some possibilities with him considering we know golgari will be using the graveyard. Plus plenty of good things in a GB EDH deck. Crucible of worlds, dies/sac triggers. He will have a use there if no where else.

I want a reprint of Crucible of Worlds now please. Just for fun.
(also Fastbond , but that won't happen)
But he's good enough without it I guess.

I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.

Crucible would be nice if only because it is a great edh card.

As I said he plays very well with dredge


And is in the right colors for gigantic creatures .

I'd think he'd also be a 4/4 himself considering his mythic-yness or 3/4 for w/e

Decks I run

Spoiler: Show


I currently run a deck for Standard, Modern, Commander and Legacy.
For standard, I have a typical, horribly budget Rakdos Deck Wins.
For Modern, I have a very lovable mono-green, resistant to removal type of deck.
For Legacy, I'm trying too hard to break Pyromancer Ascension .
For Commander/EDH, I'm running The Mimeoplasm .
A little morals thing about me, I like winning through combos, but not infinitely.

However quiet, I am a Christian, so feel free to tell me you are too, it's always a relief.

Cheers!

Ehh...

Thing is, he has Boneyard Wurm 's ability.  Boneyard wurm is constructed playable in the right deck, which means the ability gives roughly +3/+3 in the right deck.

And then he has two extremely relevant abilities.   Fling that costs 1 more mana but doesn't cost a card.  And recursion for sacrificing a land (which reminds me a little of Horizon Canopy).


...Which is to say, this would probably see at least a little constructed play at 0/0.  I mean, I know they like to undercost their mythics, but +4/+4 over a card that would see some constructed play seems a little extreme....

What right deck? Boneyard Wurm hasn't been Constructed playable since it saw print.

It should be about giving black cards to Niche.

I thought Jarad was already spoiled to be a 4/4?  Maybe in the other speculation thread...

Hmm...I remember seeing it in some rare occasional decklists posted online, but maybe I'm misremembering?  ...one sec lemme google...

www.wizards.com/magic/samplehand.asp?x=m...

 That's just block constructed (and contains a lot of otherwise janky cards that could only show up in block)

www.starcitygames.com/magic/standard/235...

That's just speculating on a potential deck idea, and not actually posting results with the deck.  He was later quoted as saying the reason he didn't play it at the next event was due to fear of Nihil Spellbomb, but...it's not like Splinterfright decks did anything at large scale block constructed tournaments where Nihil Spellbomb was not in the format (like pro tour avacyn restored).  And Tormod's Crypt is in M13, so it's not like rotation will help the spellbomb situation.


Yeah, my mistake; I retract my statement.
